Embiid has been saying “trust the process” in all of his interviews as well. The slogan is a reference to what Sixers fans created for the Sam Hinkie era, the team’s ex-general manager who had the vision to draft Embiid along with Dario Saric, Nerlens Noel, and Jahlil Okafor.

Hinkie is no longer here, but on Tuesday night, The Process was officially born.
